Video Residencies

            Trickster has made a “Pivot to Video.”   

Yes, Trickster has re-invented ourselves to a video production company as part of our adaptation to Covid.

For 2020-21, we are changing our Trickster residencies to telling video stories (unless social distancing rules change). To do this, we are training all of our Trickster artists to be videographers. We’ll still be in your school, but we will work on a different schedule to keep contact down and creativity high. Click here to find out more.

Trickster will be doing a lot of work on green screens. This is the technology that Hollywood uses to place people in any place they want. We’ll be bringing very big ones for the gym and small ones for classrooms.

We’ll be sharing the finished videos with parents via password protected link a week after the Trickster residency is over. It’s pretty exciting to be working with all that technology!

The AFA has approved this format for schools with funding for 2020-21.
